Thunderbird calendar import

Hi, I am trying to export a calendar from a Windows 10 PC into a Lubuntu PC. The exported Home.ics file is about 217KB. At stage 4 in the import process (which shows the file name correctly) a message in red says "No importable items found in the file" . In the main area it says "Loading items" but nothing happens. Am I missing something here? Thanks

What were the exact steps when you exported the calendar on the Windows computer? How did you transfer the file to the Linux computer?

Under Calendars select Home, three dots on right, Export Calendar, save to a Home.ics file. The PCs are on a network. The Linux one can see W10 PC and so can select the file using Tools, import... I have tried saving the file into Linux in a separate location from the network link but get the same result.
